Hands on: Sony Xperia X

Sony Mobiles announced the Xperia X line-up at a press briefing at its stand during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. A well-kept secret: since not many were expecting a smartphone launch from Sony.

The new Xperia X range features the X, the X Performance, and the XA.

We had a hands on with the Xperia X immediately after its launch, and here’s what we think about it.

The device features a 5-inch Full HD curved display and weighs a light 153gm. Its colour options are white, graphic black, lime gold and – everyone’s favourite – rose gold.

You also have a fingerprint sensor integrated into the power button on the side.
